Dorothy B. Curran

Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Dorothy B. Curran, 94, went to be with her Lord and Savior on January 23, 2021 at St. Vincent Hospital, in Kokomo. She was born on December 23, 1926 in Kokomo, to the late Lonnie and Cloa Waggoner. She married Richard Curran on April 8, 1971, in Indianapolis, and he preceded her in death in 2016. Dorothy retired from Delco after 30+ years. She stayed busy following retirement, working at Goodwill and shopping at flea markets and garage sales. She was a 50+ year member of the Order of the Eastern Star, Kokomo Chapter 89 and the Church of One Accord. Dorothy's greatest love was her family. She loved unconditionally and was instrumental in her granddaughters' and grandchildren lives. She loved playing cards and visiting with friends. She will be missed greatly. She is survived by her granddaughters, Heidi Vint, Samantha Runge (Dan), and Erin Maass (Michael); a grandson, Brian Curran; a step-daughter-in-law, Debra Curran; 3 great-grandchildren, Madeline Vint, Ciara Bright, and Denise Runge; and several nieces and nephews.
